Attaching external javadoc

Aug 31st, 2010, 10:15 AM

I am trying to attach the javadoc for the spring-core library by setting its javadoc property from the project maven dependencies to http://static.springsource.org/sprin...x/javadoc-api/ but as soon as I click OK (or apply followed by OK) and go back to the properties for the library, the javadoc setting was removed. I believe this is due to maven dependency checking and the fact that the maven repository does not have javadoc configured for spring libraries however I could not figure out how to work around this. Can anyone help?

I do realize that the javadoc view will display the javadoc for the current selection since the java source is configured for spring library but this is not what I am asking.
